Woman Overjoyed By Giant Uterine Parasite

Found that after reading this amusing, nostalgic article by a former "reporter" for the Weekly World News:

It makes me very sad that the WWN is being put to bed for good.

I know! I've never done more than chuckle and shake my head at it, but this article made me want to buy a copy, and now I can't. The guy did come up with some damn funny stuff.

haha! I love it. Especially since i keep calling mine "the parasite" too.

[becca_maru]

Aww, the little parasite. :)

Totally my sense of humor. I love The Onion.

So sad! I do love this one:

"Rumsfeld Changes His Name to Rumsfeldstiltskin and Tells Rogue Nations 'Guess My New Name or We'll Invade You"

Yeah, I love that one too. If you miss the Weekly World News, pick up a copy of Robert Olen Butler's book Tabloid Dreams. He made up a bunch of tabloid-esque headlines and turned them into short stories. I think my favorite was "Help Me Find My Spaceman Lover." He's my new favorite author.
